Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) plays a central role in controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) during in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles. While baseline FSH is commonly used to assess ovarian reserve, the clinical significance of dynamic FSH changes during stimulation remains u…

3.1. Overview Prospective, multicenter, observational cohort study comparing short-term PROs measured with the HM-PRO between two exposure groups: patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) and patients receiving CAR-T cell therapy. Patients will be enrol…

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a digital patient education solution, CHUVeduc@home, in improving preoperative preparation for patients undergoing total hip or knee arthroplasty. In Switzerland, many patients receive joint replacements each year to relieve osteoa…

The study aims to assess differences in body composition, exercise capacity, and thermoregulation between young soccer players with type 1 diabetes and their healthy peers. Real-time glycemic monitoring during exercise will provide insights for developing effective diabetes manag…

Eccentric exercise induces muscle damage and delay functional recovery. Broccoli-derived glucoraphanin (a sulforaphane precursor that activates Nrf2 defenses) may aid repair; however, its short-term effects in humans remains unknown. This study aims to evaluate whether short-term…

This study aims to evaluate whether adding a fenestration procedure to standard ultrasound-guided aspiration and corticosteroid-lidocaine injection provides additional clinical benefits for patients with symptomatic Baker's cyst associated with knee osteoarthritis. Baker's cyst i…

After surgery, elastic compression is commonly used on the legs to support blood circulation and reduce the risk of complications such as swelling and venous thromboembolism. In clinical practice, compression is usually applied at fixed pressure levels, although individual patien…
